Democrat Candidates BOYCOTT School Board Candidates Forum!!!   Said they had better things to do!!   Report, investigation and conclusions by Robert A 

The well-advertised School Board Candidates Forum held September 27, 2022 at the Stamey Event Center in Fallston was a historic event held in a historic venue. It was well announced, well attended and the questions were handled in a historic manner too. The “Official” Questions were passed out to everybody, candidates as well as the audience, in advance and the public was also allowed to ask questions at the end. Robert A was the first member of the audience to ask a question.

Four School Board Candidates were present. All Republicans. Danny Blanton, Ronnie Grigg, Aaron Bridges and Walter Scott Spurling. ALL FOUR Democrat Candidates (names not worthy of mentioning) were MIA (Missing In Action). The Moderator, Brandon Bridges, announced that all the Democrat Candidates stated that they had previous engagements–Democrat Party Meetings.

When it is just two weeks before early voting starts, everybody in politics knows the Number 1 Priority is to get out and meet the people. Instead, the Democrat School Board Candidates SNUBBED the people. They SNUBBED the voters! What kind of dumb political trick is that? The Democrats should have known better. (Or, are they depending on divisions in the Republican Party to save the day for them???)

But Robert A can be a fair person when he takes the notion. So, Robert A Googles the Cleveland County Democrat Party website just to see if there was some kind of important meeting or event scheduled for that same date, September 27, 2022. NO, NADA, negative. Nothing about anything for September 27, 2022. So, the Dumb-o-crats were lying. And Robert A hates being lied to by politicians. Any Politician. And there are plenty of liars in the Republican Party too. Robert “Luke” Queen, Kevin “Mad Dog” Gordon and plenty of others. Robert A has publicly stated that he stands apart from the Cleveland County Republican Party because of all the lies and dirty tricks by the Rogue Republicans and the CCGOP leadership NOT enforcing their very own Plan of Organization. Robert A stood apart from the Democrat Party too, long ago, because of the lies they told, by changing his voter registration. Long ago.

As Robert A sat in the audience at that September 27, 2022 School Board Candidates Forum Robert A became convinced that these four Republican School Board Candidates; Dr. Danny Blanton, Dr. Ronnie Grigg, Aaron Bridges and Walter Scott Spurling were odds on favorites to be the winners in the 2022 School Board Elections. Although Robert A will still hold, for now, with his recommendation to vote only for Blanton and Grigg for the School Board. Note that it would be nice if Republican School Board candidates Aaron Bridges and Walter Scott Spurling would publicly renounce the Rogue Republican dirty tricks and phony smear campaign they were, maybe unwittingly on their part, involved with in the 2022 Republican Primary School Board elections. But noting in politics is so dirty and low down as these four Democrat Candidates pulled by snubbing the citizens by purposely boycotting a Candidates forum. Robert A predicts the citizens and voters in Cleveland County will remember this arrogant snub on ELECTION DAY. The day Dumb-o-crats become extinct on the Cleveland County School Board.

Folks, all this being said, Robert A has some major concerns with what the School Board Candidates made public knowledge at this September 27, 2022 School Board Candidates Forum. Stay tuned for Robert A’s next article that will describe the Questions asked at this “independent” Candidate’s Forum. Questions and answers that YOU voters might not learn about anywhere else. CCS’s educational programs are a disaster in many, many ways. Robert A is proclaiming an Educational Emergency at CCS that these four Republican School Board Candidates may not be able to solve all by themselves in 2023 and 2024 without major help.

Folks, Stay tuned. Help may be on the way. Although that help may not arrive until newly elected officials are elected and sworn-in in late 2024.
